In a pursuit at the Lord Elibank's instance against Alexander Auchmouty, who had a wadset of some part of his land, whereof the rents did far exceed the annualrents of the money, this action being founded upon the Act of debtor and creditor; and Auchmouty alleging there was a clause in the contract, whereby the Lord Elibank did renounce the benefit of all acts to be made in favours of debtors restricting wadsets;—
The Lords found, That, notwithstanding thereof, he behoved to count; and that the Act of Parliament did not extend to the defender's pursuit.
